Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse Requirements; Driver Qualification Requirements: Waste Management Holdings, Inc.; Application for Exemptions

FMCSA announces its decision to grant in part and deny in part the exemption application from Waste Management Holdings, Inc. (WM) for a period of two years. FMCSA grants WM's request for limited relief from certain driver qualification requirements to allow WM to use the exception for a "single-employer driver" when it transfers drivers among affiliates. FMCSA also grants a limited exemption from the requirement for the driver to undergo controlled substances testing when being transferred among affiliates if the driver has participated in a WM random controlled substances testing pool for any WM-affiliated employer for the previous 12 months. Finally, FMCSA grants an exemption to allow WM to conduct a limited, rather than full, Clearinghouse query when transferring drivers among affiliates. FMCSA denies WM's request for broad exemptions from the pre-employment controlled substance testing and Clearinghouse requirements. FMCSA concludes that the exemptions will likely achieve a level of safety equivalent to or greater than the level of safety that would be achieved absent the exemptions.

ons if: (1) motor carriers operating under the exemptions fail to comply with the terms and conditions of the exemptions; (2) the exemptions result in a lower level of safety than was maintained before the exemptions were granted; or (3) continuation of the exemptions would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of Title 49, chapter 313 or section 31136. The exemptions are automatically terminated if any affiliated motor carrier receives a final Unsatisfactory safety rating. Derek Barrs, Administrator.
